IMPROVEMENT IN EGG-BEATERS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 200,290, dated February 12, 1878; application filed January 5, 1875.

,ful Improvement in Egg-Beaters, which improvement is fully set forth in the following specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings.

The invention is an improvement in the class of wire egg-heaters having the general outline of a table-spoon.

The improvement relates to the construction of the bowl and handle of the beater, as hereinafter described and claimed.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure l is a face or plan view, and Fig. 2 a side or edge view, of my improved egg-beater. Figs. 3, 4, and 5 illustrate the details of construction.

The frame of the bowl is approximately elliptical in shape, and formed of a wire, A, whose ends a a are bent outward to adapt them to enter and be secured in the end of the tubular handle 0, as shown in Fig. 3. Said handle is constructed of an oblong rectangular plate of tin or other sheet metal by bending or turning in its side edges a a, as shown in Fig. 4.

The ends a a of the bowl-frame Aare clamped in the handle 0 by pressing down the turnedover-edges a a, and then soldering the parts firmly together. The body B of the bowl is formed by interwoven wires, whose ends I and J are attached to the respective ends of the frame A, as shown in Figs l and 2. The bent wire E, Fig. 5, is inserted and soldered in the outer end of handle 0 to impart rigidity'to the latter, and also serves as a loop by which to suspend the beater from a nail or other device. I thus produce an egg-beater which is very cheap, yet strong, light, durable, and efficient.

hat I claim is The egg beater hereinbefore described, formed of the sheet-metal handle 0, having its edges a bent inward, the bowl-frame formed of a wire, A, whose projecting ends a are secured in the handle, and the wire body B, all constructed and arranged as shown and described, for the purpose specified.
